10 Barrel Brewing Company - OG Wheat IPA

Represent, Bend, Ore-GUN!

It's Sunday and I took a little trip to the Used Food Store (Grocery Outlet) to stock up on cost-effective beer. They have some decent prices at the Used Food Store and this beer drinking hobby of mine is getting out of financial control, I'll tell you what.

I picked up a bomber of 10 Barrel Brewing Company's OG Wheat IPA for $3.49. Deal! The label proclaims an ABV of 6.5%. It also states that OG is an homage to the "original gangsters" of Oregon craft brewing. Okay, let's see how crunk this sh*t can get.

The beer poured into my pint glass a clear, golden orange color with a lively white head. The head bubbled up to an inch thick and dissipated at a moderate rate. A respectable amount of lacing was left behind all over the glass.

Aroma was a big sock of citrus hops as soon as the cap was popped off the bomber. Orange and grapefruit. A faint smell of sweet malt and tropical fruit in the background.

AWARDS!

About Me

Everybody needs a hobby, mine is drinking craft beer. When I'm not at work, you can find me on my deck, sipping on a cold one and manning my Weber Kettle. I love my wife, my kids and my dog, Merry the Wonder Beagle. I also love my adopted home, Portland, Oregon, the best damn beer city in these United States or anywhere else.
